engineeringpractice. An excerpt from the departmental mission statement exemplifies the focus: “The mission of the Department of Engineering is to produce, as its graduates, competent engineering practitioners. An engineering practitioner is one who has a foundation of basic science, mathematics, and engineering knowledge, combined with practical knowledge and experience in applying existing technology to contemporary problems.” 5Project based learning was the guiding principle in the development of the EE curriculum.7 Thecurriculum insures that students are involved in project based activities during their entireundergraduate experience. These experiences include lab classes, design classes and classprojects. In addition

For example,in Biofluids, we will explain to the students that fluid statics draws numerous parallels to twoprevious courses they have taken on general engineering mechanics. Furthermore, inBiomaterials, to facilitate various learning styles, the students become the teachers near the endof the semester, and develop presentations that encompass a variety of different biomaterialsapplications.

The lack of anydifferences suggests that the group process model used by Business School faculty may begeneralizable to engineering projects.The purpose of Table 3 is to determine if particular media are used for different purposes bystudents from different disciplines. Perhaps the most interesting result in Table 3 is the fact thatengineering students use email to the same extent to complete transitional, action, andinterpersonal tasks.

Such examples allow students to connectmaterial with personal experiences, potentially spark further questions or curiosity, andimplicitly demonstrate both the importance and ubiquity of a subject. Without the instructorexplicitly pointing out connections, students can struggle to see the applicability of the topic.When teaching a technical engineering course it is easy for an instructor to focus on theequations, assumptions, theories, problem solving algorithms and similar

Onthe other hand, the advantage of taking such a survey at the end of a course is that students get abroader picture of class material before they respond to the survey questions.
